SCREENING: Documentary Tour in Japan

14 Nov. 2024

  • Amphithéâtre Bastille

In January 2024, the Paris Opéra Company is in full swing as it embarks on a tour of Tokyo. The costumes and sets have to be prepared quickly, and the two classical ballets, Swan Lake and L'Histoire de Manon, have to be rehearsed.

Two young dancers who have just joined the opera are dreaming of their first tour, while for the stars Myriam Ould Braham and Mathieu Ganio, it will be their last before retirement.

No fewer than 180 people will be going to Japan, and this documentary series will follow their entire adventure: from the stars to the stagehands, not forgetting the hairdressers, make-up artists and ballet masters... it's a journey into the intimacy of the Paris Opera company.

Duration: 2 hours 10 minutes
